Fix handling of bare URLs to (more) correctly process URLs present in s3 or a c…lone when migrating to local, including changing to an `upload:` psuedo-protocol URL, tagging audio and video files, using the `![name](url)` syntax, and in the process not creating non-URLs that point to nothing. Fix `batch_migrate_from_s3` to take both a max number of posts to actually modify in a migration (the original but failed intent of limit) and a limit of total posts to consider for migration (for cheaper database queries). Because a primary goal of the `max` limit is debugging, also use it to cause verbose logging output. Print diagnostic messages for conditions that might require manual intervention, such as file too large (if upload sizes were reduced in site settings) or failure to download (which can happen on an intermittent basis and might require re-running the migration). Finally, in the case of a truly unexpected error, print the error and stop processing, so that error cascades do not become hidden failures stopping a successful migration, but can instead be resolved.
